Q: paths, not type on !
Hello folks !
Ok, first of all, I'm Final Cut Editor with good knowledges in vfx, Colorist... but I'm not a Motionographer..
What I'm wondering about is how to draw a word , but not like as Type On behavior ( Letter by letter ),
what I DO want is type on a word folllowing the path of the letters... well, I know about Paint Stroke Tool, but is not what I want, so my question is... is it possible convert letters ( or words, doesn't matter) in paths and then type on the letters and words following this path? I didn't figured out how to do it.. I tried to do bringing paths from ilustrador but didn't work. The only way to achieve what I wanted was drawing the path using bezier tool, letter by letter, it works but it was not perfect, some fonts are very complex to draw a path with bezier tool. I refined letters curves using Roundness on Geometry tab... but is a lot of work!! :blink: I hope you guys have an easier way to do this.
thx
